Germany: Bike tours in the High Eifel
The Hocheifel region marks the border between Belgium and Germany. The moors of the High Fens are a unifying and separating element, surrounded by single trails, old walls and all kinds of delicacies.
The mountain was simply too small for the king; it needed to be 700 metres high. So King Leopold II had a six-metre-high gallery built on the 694-metre-high Signal de Botrange without further ado. Even without the stairway to nowhere, the mountain is the highest peak in Belgium - and an ideal starting point for bike tours towards Malmédy or the German Rur valley.
